Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the rising global demand for cheese, the high cost and limited supply of calf rennet, and consumer choices have increased research into new alternatives to animal or recombinant chymosins for cheese making. Plant proteases with caseinolytic activity (CA) and milk-clotting activity (MCA) have been proposed as alternatives for milk clotting to obtain artisanal cheeses with new organoleptic properties. They have been named vegetable rennets (vrennets). The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of two Solanum tuberosum aspartic proteases (StAP1 and StAP3) as vrennets for cheese making and to obtain a statistical model that could predict and optimize their enzymatic activity. RESULTS To optimize the CA and MCA activities, a response surface methodology was used. Maximum values of CA and MCA for both enzymes were found at pH 5.0 and 30-35 °C. Analysis of the degradation of casein subunits showed that it is possible to tune the specificity of both enzymes by changing the pH. At pH 6.5, the αS - and β- subunit degradation is reduced while conserving a significant MCA. CONCLUSION The statistical models obtained in this work showed that StAP1 and StAP3 exert CA and MCA under pH and temperature conditions compatible with those used for cheese making. The casein subunit degradation percentages obtained also allowed us to select the best conditions for the degradation of the κ-casein subunit by StAPs. These results suggest that StAP1 and StAP3 are good candidates as vrennets for artisan cheese making. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

New Coagulant Proteases for Cheesemaking from Leaves and Latex of the Spontaneous Plant Pergularia tomentosa: Biochemical Characterization of Coagulants and Sensorial Evaluation of Cheese.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the caseinolytic and milk-clotting activities of aqueous crude extracts from leaves and latex of the Pergularia tomentosa, to determine their suitability as a rennet substitute. These extracts were subjected to a series of biochemical tests before being used in the production of cheese. The results showed that the enzymatic latex extract had a higher coagulant activity than the leaf extract. However, under different clotting conditions (pH, temperature, and CaCl2 concentration), both coagulants behaved similarly in the coagulation of Berridge substrate. The SDS-PAGE and zymographic analysis revealed identical protein bands with a single active zone in both extracts, corresponding to a molecular weight of 26.98 kDa and 26.03 kDa in the extract of leaf and latex, respectively. Both extracts were stable to different effectors but strongly inhibited by iodoacetamide and Hg, suggesting it to be a cysteine protease. Both extracts were able to hydrolyze casein and generate peptides of 14 kDa, with excessive hydrolysis of the other casein fractions. The physicochemical parameters of cheese made from latex and leaf extract evolved similarly to control cheese. According to the sensory evaluation, cheese made with latex had a mildly bitter flavor but showed a high acceptance rate (>80%).

Abstract
With the continual increase in global cheese consumption, rennet, the traditional milk coagulant, is unable to meet the growing demand in cheese production. Although several proteases from other sources have been used for cheese-making, they suffer various shortcomings. The ocean is home to a huge and diverse range of life forms, which represent a vast potential source of proteases. Marine proteases have been isolated from a number of marine species, including sponge, jellyfish, seaweed and marine animals, and some have been shown to be suitable as milk-clotting enzymes for cheese making. This review summarizes the latest studies on rennet substitutes from marine resources and their role in cheese-making. The emphasis of the review is on the isolation and purification of the marine proteases, the biochemical characteristics of these enzymes, especially their caseinolytic and milk-clotting properties, as well as their cleavage sites on casein. Some of the marine proteases have been applied as milk-clotting agent in cheese-making, with the resultant production of cheese with comparable characteristics, including sensory characteristics, to calf rennet cheese. The review concludes by highlighting the challenges and opportunities for future research in the field.

Abstract
A thermostable acid protease from M. indicus leaves was purified 10-fold using a 4-step protocol. We were able to isolate a purified protease fraction with a molecular weight of 50 kDa and exhibited maximal protease activity at pH 4.0 and 40 °C. Structural analysis revealed that the protease is monomeric and non-glycosylated. The addition of epoxy monocarboxylic acid, iodoacetic acid, and dimethyl sulfoxide significantly reduced protease activity while dramatically increasing the inhibition of Mn2+, Fe2+, and Cu2+. The activation energy of the hydrolysis reaction (33.33 kJ mol-1) and activation energy (Ed = 105 kJ mol-1), the standard enthalpy variation of reversible protease unfolding (2.58 kJ/mol) were calculated after activity measurements at various temperatures. Thermal inactivation of the pure enzyme followed first-order kinetics. The half-life (t1/2) of the pure enzyme at 50 °C, 60 °C, and 70 °C was 385, 231, and 154 min, respectively. Thermodynamic parameters (entropy and enthalpy) suggested that the protease was highly thermostable. This is the first report on the thermodynamic parameters of proteases produced by M. indicus. The novel protease appears to be particularly thermostable and may be important for industrial applications based on these thermodynamic properties.

Abstract
An updated review of emerging plant proteases with potential biotechnological application is presented. Plant proteases show comparable or even greater performance than animal or microbial proteases for by-product valorization through hydrolysis for, for example, cheese whey, bird feathers, collagen, keratinous materials, gelatin, fish protein, and soy protein. Active biopeptides can be obtained as high added value products, which have shown numerous beneficial effects on human health. Plant proteases can also be used for wastewater treatment. The production of new plant proteases is encouraged for the following advantages: low cost of isolation using simple procedures, remarkable stability over a wide range of operating conditions (temperature, pH, salinity, and organic solvents), substantial affinity to a broad variety of substrates, and possibility of immobilization. Vegetable proteases have enormous application potential for the valorization of industrial waste and its conversion into products with high added value through low-cost processes.

Abstract
A cysteine peptidase was previously identified from germinated Moringa oleifera seeds, but its milk-clotting properties on bovine caseins was still unclear. In this study, this novel cysteine peptidase (MoCP) showed preferential activity on κ-casein (κ-CN), with greater hydrolytic activity compared with calf rennet, whereas weak hydrolysis of α-casein and β-casein made MoCP suitable for application in cheesemaking and may yield various functional peptides. All 3 evaluated caseins were hydrolyzed to form relatively stable peptide bands within 3 h of proteolysis with MoCP. Cleavage sites were determined by gel electrophoresis, liquid chromatography mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry, and peptide sequencing, which revealed that cleavage of κ-CN by MoCP occurred at residue Ile129-Pro130 and generated a 14,895.37-Da peptide. The flocculation reaction between MoCP and κ-CN determined by 3-dimensional microscopy with super-depth of field revealed that the initial 30 min of reaction were key for milk coagulation, which may affect curd yield. Overall, the findings presented herein suggest that the cysteine peptidase from germinated M. oleifera seeds can be considered a promising plant-derived rennet alternative for use in cheese manufacture.

Abstract
Milk clotting enzyme (MCE) of Moringa oleifera from prepared seed cake (PSC) dissolved in acetate buffer pH 5.0 recorded the highest activity compared to other samples, as well as 20–40% saturation of ammonium sulfate precipitated MCE with 28.20% yield and 1.01 purification fold. The proteolytic activity (PA) of crude MCE from Moringa oleifera PSC was higher than those of partial purified MCE with 180.81 and 155.47 as MCA/PA ratio, respectively. PSC moringa MCE exhibited their optimal activity at pH 5.0 and 60 °C; it could be capable to coagulate different milk types. Also, goat soft cheeses coagulated with moringa MCE exhibited significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher levels of water soluble nitrogen content and total sensorial scores than control cheese. It could be concluded that partial purified MCE from Moringa oleifera PSC may prove to be a good candidate in goat cheese production without any appeared defects during their storage period. Milk clotting enzyme was purified from moringa waste resulted during oil extraction. Purified milk clotting enzyme from moringa waste could be used as calf substitute. Moringa milk clotting enzyme could be used as a coagulant for different milk types. No bitterness appeared in goat cheese coagulated with moringa milk clotting enzyme.

Abstract
The behavior of fat globules during the gastric digestion of raw and pasteurized cow, goat, and sheep whole milks was studied using a human gastric simulator. Microstructural and physicochemical analysis revealed that, initially, the coagulation of the milks in the human gastric simulator resulted in the majority of the milk fat globules being entrapped within the curd. As the digestion progressed, the proportion of fat globules entrapped within the aggregated protein matrix (curd) decreased; there was also some flocculation as well as coalescence of the fat globules within the curd. The liberation of the entrapped fat globules from the curd to the liquid phase of the chyme was strongly dependent on the disintegration and hydrolysis of the structured casein network. Surprisingly, the fat globules released (or already present) into the liquid phase of the chyme were not as extensively coalesced as those remaining within the curd. These phenomena were observed to be similar for the raw and pasteurized whole milk of all species. The pasteurized whole milks from all species formed relatively less structured coagula compared with their raw milk counterparts, leading to a greater extent of protein breakdown and, thus, higher proportions of fat release from the pasteurized milk curds. This study provides a deeper understanding of how the curd-forming properties of different mammalian milks in the gastric environment provide controlled delivery of nutrients (such as protein and fat).

Abstract
Dregea sinensis (D. sinensis) stems have traditionally been used as milk coagulant in Dali of Yunnan Province, China. In this study, proteomics was used to investigate the bio-functions of D. sinensis stem proteins, leading to the purification and identification of the milk-clotting enzyme. A total of 205 proteins mainly involved in the catalytic and metabolic processes were identified, of which 28 proteins exhibited hydrolase activity. Among the 28 proteins, we focused on two enzymes (M9QMC9 and B7VF65). Based on proteomics, a cysteine protease (M9QMC9) with a molecular weight of 25.8 kDa and milk-clotting activity was purified from D. sinensis stems using double ammonium sulfate precipitation and was confirmed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The milk-clotting temperature using the purified enzyme was around 80 °C (specific activity at 314.38 U/mg), and it was found to be stable in the pH range of 6-9 in NaCl concentration of <0.8 mol/L. These findings indicated that the enzyme isolated from D. sinensis stems has potential in the dairy and food sectors, especially in the cheese-making industry.

Abstract
Moringa oleifera is originally a tropical crop with a fast development, little known in developed countries but cultivated since ancient times. It can adapt to regions affected by climate change, such as the Mediterranean basin, since it is a crop with a great resistance to high temperatures. In this study an in-depth bibliographical review was carried out by consulting different databases (Science Direct, FSTA, Scielo, Riunet, and Google Scholar) in order to find published scientific studies on the characteristics of this crop and its agronomic requirements. According to the information found, all parts of the Moringa oleifera, namely the leaves, pods, seeds, roots and flowers, can be used in different industrial sectors such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic, human food, animal feed, and water treatment since they have a nutritional profile rich in high biological value proteins, vitamins A and C, antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids and minerals: calcium, iron, potassium, and phosphorous.

Abstract
Our objectives were to identify genes of the multi-drug efflux system and to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy-NPs) and aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera against Staphylococcus spp. isolated from dairy farms in Northeast Brazil. Initially, 162 Staphylococcus spp. isolates were subjected to in vitro antimicrobial sensitivity tests. Of these, 35 presented antimicrobial multi-drug resistance phenotypes. These 35 isolates were then referred for the detection of norA, norB, norC, msrA, mgrA, tet-38, and lmrS genes, all of which feature in multi-drug efflux systems. In the isolates carrying the genes, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of PPy-NPs and Moringa oleifera aqueous extract were determined. In the molecular analysis of the 35 isolates norA, norC, tet-38, and msrA genes were detected and for the other genes norB, lmrS and mgrA there was no amplification. Antimicrobial activity was verified of PPy-NPs and aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera in Staphylococcus spp. carrying multi-drug efflux system genes. We concluded that there are multi-drug efflux system genes present in the Staphylococcus spp. from the agricultural environment in Northeast Brazil, and that aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera and PPy-NPs show bactericidal activity against these isolates.

Abstract
Moringa oleifera Lam. (M. oleifera) leaves have long been consumed as both nutritive vegetable and popular folk medicine for hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia in Kenya communities. In the current study, in vitro inhibition by M. oleifera leaf extract (MOLE, 90% (v/v) ethanol) of α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase was demonstrated, followed by determination of the effects of MOLE on both glucose consumption and lipid levels (TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C) in 3T3-L1 cells. Potential ligands in MOLE were fast screened using affinity ultrafiltration LC-MS, and 14 and 10 components displayed certain binding affinity to α-glucosidase and pancreatic lipase, respectively. Docking studies revealed the binding energies and hydrogen bonds between potential ligands and enzymes. This study suggests that M. oleifera leaves may be a promising natural source for the prevention and treatment of hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia as well as a functional food or other product for health care in the near future.

Abstract
Plant proteases used in cheesemaking are easily available and could increase the acceptability of cheeses, otherwise hindered by ethical issues (e.g., religions, dietary habits, aversion to genetically engineered food and food ingredients). The milk clotting potential of Onopordum tauricum (Willd.) aqueous extract as an alternative to animal rennet was assessed for the first time in milk of different species (ewe, goat, cow). Among the aerial anatomical parts, i.e., receptacle, leaves, stems, and flowers, only the latter ones showed clotting properties. A response surface methodology (RSM) was used to explore the effects of three independent variables (temperature, pH, volume of coagulant) on the milk clotting activity (MCA) of the flower extract. A second-order polynomial model adequately described the experimental data and predicted a temperature value of 55 °C, a pH value of 4.9–5.7, and a volume of coagulant of 300–500 μL (added to 5 mL of milk) as optimal conditions to maximize the MCA. At a 35 °C temperature and natural milk pH of 6.7–6.8, the estimated MCA of the O. tauricum extract was 72–87, 69–86, and 75–151, in goat’s, ewe’s, and cow’s milk, respectively. In comparison, the MCA of calf rennet was 5.4–4.9, 3.3–14.7, and 4.9–16.7 times higher than that of the plant extract in goat’s, ewe’s, and cow’s milk, respectively.

Abstract
A numerous types of tree flowers are present in nature and few of them such as Rhdodendron, Bauhinia, Mahua, Gulmohar, Palash, Sesbania, Woodfordia, Simbal, etc. are being utilized traditionally as food and medicine by the localities of India. These flowers are rich in phytochemical (flavonoids, anthocyanins, phenolic acids, carotenoids, tannins, saponins) and possessing numerous health benefits (antioxidant activity, anti-inflammation, anti-cancer activity, anti-diabetic activity, hepatoprotective activity). However, because of the low availability (i.e. short blooming period and at limited places) and poor post-harvest life, these flowers are commonly utilized by the local people as food and medicines during their respective flowering times only. A few attempts have been made toward the utilization of some tree flowers (Mahduca longifolia, Rhododendron arboretum), but others are still unexplored and need to be exploited to achieve food and nutritional security as well increase the opportunity of employment and improvement in the socio-economic status of the local tribes. Therefore, to achieve this, the present review was aimed to review and document the status of common edible tree flowers, their phytochemicals potential and, health benefits as well as their utilization as food and medicines.

Abstract
The genus Moringa Adans. comprises 13 species, of which Moringa oleifera Lam. native to India and cultivated across the world owing to its drought and frost resistance habit is widely used in traditional phytomedicine and as rich source of essential nutrients. Wide spectrum of phytochemical ingredients among leaf, flower, fruit, seed, seed oil, bark, and root depend on cultivar, season, and locality. The scientific studies provide insights on the use of M. oleifera with different aqueous, hydroalcoholic, alcoholic, and other organic solvent preparations of different parts for therapeutic activities, that is, antibiocidal, antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective, hepato-protective, neuro-protective, tissue-protective, and other biological activities with a high degree of safety. A wide variety of alkaloid and sterol, polyphenols and phenolic acids, fatty acids, flavanoids and flavanol glycosides, glucosinolate and isothiocyanate, terpene, anthocyanins etc. are believed to be responsible for the pragmatic effects. Seeds are used with a view of low-cost biosorbent and coagulant agent for the removal of metals and microbial contamination from waste water. Thus, the present review explores the use of M. oleifera across disciplines for its prominent bioactive ingredients, nutraceutical, therapeutic uses and deals with agricultural, veterinarian, biosorbent, coagulation, biodiesel, and other industrial properties of this "Miracle Tree."

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Universal demand for cheese keeps the search for appropriate enzymes from plants mimicking animal rennet action in scientific focus.
Objective:
To associate distribution of milk clotting potential and profile of whole/κ-casein hydrolysis by Calotropis gigantea stem, leaf and respective calli crude enzymes (CE).
Materials and methods:
Milk clotting activity and index were assayed for CE. Caseinolytic activity (CA) was evaluated spectrophotometrically. 0.5 CA units of CE and Enzeco® were used for studying whole/κ-casein hydrolysis pattern by Tricine SDS-PAGE. Inhibition studies were performed for enzyme characterisation.
Results:
Traditionally propagated (TP) stem and its callus CE exhibited high specific milk clotting activity (1297.30±0.2 U/mg of protein and 926.74±44.13 U/mg of protein, respectively) and milk clotting index (103.562±1.162 and 79.365±4.93, respectively). Comparison of whole casein hydrolytic pattern by 0.5 CA units of CE revealed closer resemblance between leaf callus and Enzeco®. However, κ-casein specificity analysis revealed TP leaf to be closely mimicking the performance by Enzeco®.
Conclusion:
Study suggests CE from TP leaf to be a potential vegetable coagulant to work as an effective and low-cost milk clotting mediator in cheese industry.

Abstract
Cheese production is projected to reach 20 million metric tons by 2020, of which 33% is being produced using calf rennet (EC 3.4.23.4). There is shortage of calf rennet, and use of plant and microbial rennets, hydrolyze milk proteins non-specifically resulting in low curd yields. This study reports fungal enzymes obtained from cost effective medium, with minimal down streaming, whose activity is comparable with calf and Mucor rennet. Of the fifteen fungi that were screened, Mucor thermohyalospora (MTCC 1384) and Rhizopus azygosporus (MTCC 10195) exhibited the highest milk-clotting activity (MCA) of 18,383 ± 486 U/ml and 16,373 ± 558 U/ml, respectively. Optimization exhibited a 33% increase in enzyme production (30 g wheat bran containing 6% defatted soy meal at 30 °C, pH 7) for M. thermohyalospora. The enzyme was active from pH 5-10 and temperature 45-55 °C. Rhizopus azygosporus exhibited 31% increase in enzyme production (30 g wheat bran containing 4% defatted soy meal at 30 °C, pH 6) and the enzyme was active from pH 6-9 at 50 °C. Curd yields prepared from fungal enzyme extract decreased (5-9%), when compared with calf rennet and Mucor rennet. This study describes the potential of fungal enzymes, hitherto unreported, as a viable alternative to calf rennet.

Abstract
Many inbred strains of mice develop spontaneous tumors as they age. Recent awareness of the impacts of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) on cancer and aging has inspired developing a mitochondrial-nuclear exchange (MNX) mouse model in which nuclear DNA is paired with mitochondrial genomes from other strains of mouse. MNX mice exhibit mtDNA influences on tumorigenicity and metastasis upon mating with transgenic mice. However, we also wanted to investigate spontaneous tumor phenotypes as MNX mice age. Utilizing FVB/NJ, C57BL/6J, C3H/HeN, and BALB/cJ wild-type inbred strains, previously documented phenotypes were observed as expected in MNX mice with the same nuclear background. However, aging nuclear matched MNX mice exhibited decreased occurrence of mammary tumors in C3H/HeN mice containing C57BL/6J mitochondria compared to wild-type C3H/HeN mice. Although aging tumor phenotypes appear to be driven by nuclear genes, evidence suggesting that some differences are modified by the mitochondrial genome is presented.

Abstract
In this study, the potential use of Moringa oleifera as a clotting agent of different types of milk (whole, skim, and soy milk) was investigated. M. oleifera seed extract showed high milk-clotting activity followed by flower extract. Specific clotting activity of seed extract was 200 times higher than that of flower extract. Seed extract is composed by four main protein bands (43.6, 32.2, 19.4, and 16.3 kDa). Caseinolytic activity assessed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and tyrosine quantification, showed a high extent of casein degradation using M. oleifera seed extract. Milk soy cheese was soft and creamy, while skim milk cheese was hard and crumbly. According to these results, it is concluded that seed extract of M. oleifera generates suitable milk clotting activity for cheesemaking. To our knowledge, this study is the first to report comparative data of M. oleifera milk clotting activity between different types of soy milk.

Three phase partitioning, a scalable method for the purification and recovery of cucumisin, a milk-clotting enzyme, from the juice of Cucumis melo var. reticulatus. Int J Biol Macromol 2017; 102:515-525.

Abstract
Cucumisin [EC 3.4.21.25] was first purified from Cucumis melo var. reticulatus juice by three-phase partitioning (TPP). Optimum purification parameters of the TPP system were determined as 60% ammonium sulfate saturation with 1.0:1.25 ratio of crude extract: t-butanol at pH and temperature of 8.0 and 20°C, respectively. Cucumisin was purified with 4.61 purification fold and 156% activity recovery. The molecular weight of the recovered cucumisin was determined as 68.4kDa and its isoelectric point is 8.7. Optimum pH and temperature of cucumisin were pH 9.0 and 60-70°C, respectively. The protease was very stable at 20-70°C and a pH range of 2.0-12.0. Km and Vmax constants were 2.24±0.22mgmL-1 and 1048±25μ Mmin-1, respectively. The enzyme was stable against numerous metal ions and its activity was highly enhanced by Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn+2. Cucumisin activity was 2.35-folds increased in the presence of 5mM of CaCl2. It was inactivated by Co2+, Cd2+, Zn2+ and Fe2+ and dramatically by PMSF. Cucumisin milk-clotting activity was highly stable when stored under freezing (-20°C) compared at 4°C and 25°C. Finally, TPP revealed to be a useful strategy to concentrate and purify cucumisin for its use as a milk-clotting enzyme for cheese-making.

Effect of extraction pH on techno-functional properties of crude extracts from wild cardoon (Cynara cardunculus L.) flowers. Food Chem 2017; 225:258-266.

Abstract
In the present paper, techno-functional properties of rennet derived from C. cardunculus, prepared at various pH (from 3 to 6), were investigated. It was found that the extract prepared at pH 3 had the best milk-clotting properties (MCA/PA ratio). It presented also the highest enzyme content, determined by densitometry analysis on 1D and 2D gels electrophoresis. Formation of milk gels produced by the extracts and chymosin was monitored using dynamic rheology and turbiscan. It can be assumed that by lowering rennet pH, milk pH decreases, causing a significant increase of curd firmness and both elastic (G') and viscous (G″) moduli. Results obtained by turbiscan showed similar ΔBS values of gels produced, after 2h, by chymosin and the crude extract at pH 3. In conclusion, C. cardunculus extract prepared at low pH has the potential to be employed as an efficient milk-clotting agent in the production of dairy products.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate and compare the antioxidant potential and anti-inflammatory activity of ethanolic extract of flowers of Moringa oleifera (M. oleifera) grown in Oman. METHODS Flowers of M. oleifera were collected in the month of December 2012 and identified by a botanist. Alcoholic extract of the dry pulverized flowers of M. oleifera were obtained by cold maceration method. The ethanolic flower extract was subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening as the reported methods. Folin-Ciocalteu reagent was used to estimate total phenolic content. DPPH was used to determine in-vitro antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory activity of flowers was investigated by protein denaturation method. RESULTS Phytochemical analysis of extract showed presence of major classes of phytochemicals such as tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, cardiac glycosides etc. M. oleifera flowers were found to contain 19.31 mg/g of gallic acid equivalent of total phenolics in dry extract but exhibited moderate antioxidant activity. The anti-inflammatory activity of plant extract was significant and comparable with the standard drug diclofenac sodium. CONCLUSIONS The results of our study suggest that flowers of M. oleifera possess potent anti-inflammatory activity and are also a good source of natural antioxidants. Further study is needed to identify the chemical compounds responsible for their anti-inflammatory activity.
